Abstract

Gasoline cuts have been separated from crude oil of Tawke wells (fourth and eighth) according to ASTM method at one atmosphere. Physical properties of each gasoline have been determined. Also chemical constituents of these gasolines have been examined using gas chromatography and compared with Naphtha Tawke Refinery. Percent of each straight run gasoline from crude oil of both wells have been determined with their Octane Numbers (RON and MON). The current research has been performed to increase the Octane Number of both gasoline and Naphtha using series of oxygenated and organometallic additives. Also mixed additives of oxygenated and organometallic have been added to these gasoline and Naphtha in order to find the enhancement in Octane Number. These mixtures give more increases in Octane Number than pure oxygenated or organometallic additives.
